OH me
 

It's not fair. They should at least brief,and debrief you,and assure you that the medications,therapy,and counseling are going to be upheld. I'm sorry that this happened. BF:hug:

Dear Abbie,

It won't matter much whether this person is the head tdoc for the center or not. You need a good tdoc and you need someone who will be there for a while. Like Donna suggested, ask the tdoc how long she/he intends to stay.

But really, maybe you will like this person more than the last person. It could happen.

Mari

Thanks all!

It's been pretty rough... The last time I talked to my Tdoc she assured me that I could call anytime if I needed to talk with someone... I really needed to talk with someone the other night but who was I to call???


I finally cried myself to sleep after taking max dose of my meds....


I see the new Tdoc tomorrow at 1pm and I am doing my best to be calm but it's really not working.... I am circling from depressed to hypo near manic and back to depressed.... I HATE THIS.


Only thing I know about the new tdoc is female, head of clinic....
I have no information what so ever about the Pdoc...

I go to an outpatient clinic that is part of the mental health hospital. Pdoc works two days at outpatient and rest of week at mh hospital. First Pdoc I saw had been with the mh hospital for years... the second was filling in and was from Chicago---I think.


Well... I better go... the more I think about all of this the worse I feel...
:(

And so do I.

BP wise I'm doing pretty good.

I'm sorry I haven't made it back to let you all know how things went.

I met with the new Tdoc...she seems to be a really caring and knowledgable person... She told me all about her and her background... I asked her if she is planning on sticking around....she told me that yes her family had just moved here and had bought a house. Her husband is a new professor and he wants to tenure there.

She did tell me that she doesn't know who the new Pdoc is...couldn't tell me if it was a male or female.. only that this Pdoc too would only be here temporarily....:(

She asked me to tell her as much as I felt comfortable... I was able to share a little... I told her that I get quite anxious/panic around new people.. around groups, around loud noises... she told me she would meet with me anywhere...ie...if I wanted to sit outside at their picnic table that would be fine. :)

She asked me what my diagnosis was...she knew she was reading my folder... I told her BP...she asked me if I agreed with the diagnosis... I told her that I agreed....as I can see it in me... I just don't like the stigma of it.... she said she understood. She told me that from reading my folder that she was impressed by the progress I was making... It's only baby steps in my opinion...but she said that it was still progress.

I meet with her again next week.... I'll let you know how things are going or not going....

P.S... my parents made it back from Alaska and brought me a head cold... so if you don't see me for a couple of days... :o

Abbie

I'm so glad it went so well. ANd I'm so pleased she is sticking around awhile.

She honestly sounds like a gem. And just what you ordered for starts.

Hoping you get a miss on the head cold.
